Nigerian Afrobeats singer and songwriter, Simisola Kosoko better known by her stage name Simi appealed to the eldest child in the family to learn to reject demands and set boundaries for their peace.
Sharing on the microblogging platform, X, the singer noted how the first child is being pressured with a lot of expenses. The firstborn child is always trying to be responsible for the family.
The singer added the first child should be allowed to breathe and focus on their own family, other family members are responsible for themselves. Some firstborns feel tensed whenever family matters arise but are unable to communicate their emotions.
Y’all need to let your first borns breathe. They came first does not mean they should carry everybody’s load. Many of them don’t even like you anymore , because when you text them na so so panic attack. They’re just not allowed to say it. Let them breathe
She implored firstborns to cultivate the habit of rejecting some expenses and also set boundaries because they deserve peace, hence, members of the family can cater and be responsible for themselves.
Also, first born sef learn how to say no and set boundaries. You deserve peace too.
